Johnson's Landing provides public access to the Savannah River in Allendale County, South Carolina.

The landing offers one lane of ramp access with limited parking availability.
The Savannah River at this location is a major waterway—a stream order 8 river with significant flow characteristics. With an average discharge of approximately 12,815 cubic feet per second and an average velocity of 6.89 feet per second, paddlers should expect substantial current. The river's relatively gentle average gradient of 2.2 feet per mile creates manageable conditions for most boaters, though current strength should always be respected. The river stretches 293 miles to the Atlantic Ocean, offering various paddling opportunities upstream and downstream from this access point.
